Cylinder Damping<br />
Description<br />
Cylinder damping can help smooth the steering action of large<br />
articulated vehicles such as loaders, scrapers, and skidders.<br />
These vehicles have overhanging weight with high inertial<br />
loads. This energy is dissipated by the cylinder damping<br />
orifices which bleed a small amount of flow from the cylinder<br />
port to tank.<br />
Cylinder Damping has 3 different levels of application. The<br />
number of levels equal to the number of Cylinder Damping<br />
(CD) orifices. This technology is available on Series 10, Series<br />
20, Series 25, and Series 40. Not all SCUs come with all 3<br />
levels.<br />
Features<br />
1. Level 1: for slightly jerky vehicle (lower flow rates for the<br />
steering unit)<br />
2. Level 2: for jerky vehicle<br />
3. Level 3: for severely jerky vehicle (higher flow rates for<br />
the steering unit)<br />
Benefits<br />
• Reduces jerking motion on medium and large articulated<br />
vehicles.<br />
• Available on the following steering control units (Series<br />
10, 20, 25, 40).<br />
• Damps or stabilizes unstable systems.<br />
Applications—Large Articulated Vehicles<br />
• Wheel Loaders<br />
• Skidders<br />
• Scrapers<br />
